Morph raises his hand in the same manner as before. Another burst of fire singes the creature. He then moves backward a step.
ooc
Fiery burst damage: 23 Reflex 19 for half. I'll then move backward 5'. If Lo-Kag is not swallowed by my turn, I will instead cast grease on him, giving him a +10 on grapple checks. Acid is not subject to DR.

As Lo-Kag struggles in the creature's grip, he lets out a primal roar and seems to swell even larger than he was before, trying to pry the creatures tentacles back off himself and tie them in a knot.
OOC
Mountain Rage as a free action to boost strength by +6, giving me a +22 grapple check. Got a 30 preemptively to resist whatever it does on its turn, and if I stay unswallowed I get a 31 to damage it in grapple (1d4+11 nonlethal). I'm also large size now if that matters to getting swallowed.
Didn't see Darv's action, both of those rolls should be at +2, so 32 to resist, 33 to grapple it back, 1d4+13 damage if I succeed.

Frowning gently, Darv raises his hands and hisses out another spell....

Quote:
Darv has many ranks in knowledge(nature), which would indeed tell him about plants, unless you have decided to role play that he knows plenty about nature, except in the area of plants.
I just meant that Dark Knowledge is useless against plants. Didn't put that clearly.... So if we run into Triffids, run. Fast.
Cast Mass Snake's Swiftness on the greatest concentration of allies -- everyone in 20' burst gets to take a melee or ranged attack. If it's dead before then, hit whoever looks most injured with a Lesser Vigor.
Asenfel sends another blast of energy at the creature as it tries to wrestle his companion into its leafy maw. His eyes narrow in concentration and jerks his scepter downwards sharply just as it appears the energy will hit Lo-Kag in the back; the bolt suddenly dips in its flight and strikes a glancing blow to the central mass of the creature instead.
Bemused by his predicament, Dreadnought realizes with some dismay that he does not have a small enough blade to try to saw his way out. In the past, when his sword proved inappropriate, he'd simply relied on his crushing fists.
In hindsight, it was a single gold piece of an oversight that might cost him significantly more.
Even so, he is not one to simply give up. He twists a bit, trying to get leverage, then drives his powerful adamantine fist up into the creature's stomach lining, hoping to hit delicate internal organs!
(hee...silly me...no light weapons besides his natural attack, which is blunt. But I believe I can at least do damage with it, yes?)
24 - Plant Creature – Dreadnought, Lo-Kag swallowed, 6 acid damage each. Attack Davan with Bite – HIT for 16 damage, Davan Grappled
23 - Dreadnought - Swallowed Whole, Acid damage of 6, grapple check failed.
19 - Void – Move to J3
12 - Asenfel - Eldritch Blast for 13 damage, 2nd Eldritch Blast from Snakes Swiftness hit for 21 damage
11 - Morph - Cast Fiery Burst on Plant Creature for 11 damage
4 - Lo Kag – Swallowed Whole, Acid damage of 6, grapple check failed
3 - Darv – Cast Snakes Swiftness, Mass
2 - Davan – Grappled - Cast Divine Power upon self
Lo-Kag struggles against the grasp of the maw of the plant, letting out a powerful yell that would be heard for miles, but is unable to break free – he disappear from sight into the belly of the creature. [Grapple Check won by Plant, AP would not have helped]
Once swallowed, Lo-Kag begins to go stiff from the digestive juices of the plant, but is able to fight free of the effect. Unfortunately, the acid of the creature begins to eat away at the warrior. [AP used with Fort save vs. Paralysis, please update sheet]

He struggles against the creatures esophagus to no avail. [Grapple check failed]
Meanwhile, the plant creature lashes out at the young priest with its insatiable hunger, catching the priest across the torso with its giant mouth, knocking the wind out of Davan. [Grapple check won by plant]
Void starts to tumble away from the creature, but notices that it is otherwise occupied with the priest, so he retreats out of range of the plant creature and readies himself for another charge.
Asenfel sends another blast of energy at the creature as it tries to wrestle his companion into its leafy maw. His eyes narrow in concentration and jerks his scepter downwards sharply just as it appears the energy will hit Lo-Kag in the back; the bolt suddenly dips in its flight and strikes a glancing blow to the central mass of the creature instead.
Morph raises his hand in the same manner as before. Another burst of fire singes the creature. He then moves backward a step, the lumbering creature appears to have deflected a portion of the burst.
The large goliath, realizes his large spear is of no use inside the creature, and struggles to climb out of the gullet of the creature, but is unable to get a foothold in the confined space. [Grapple check failed – rolled a 1]
Frowning gently, Darv raises his hands and hisses out another spell.... The warlock quickly fires another burst of eldritch energy at the creature, catching one of the tendrils.
The grappled priest quickly calls out to the Host for strength, and his call is answered! A divine surge ripples through his body. [Use of Action Point]
Dreadnought/Lo-Kag
Dreadnought’s natural attack is bludgeoning, which is not effective while swallowed – must be piercing or slashing.
Lo-Kag’s rolls for Fort save and AP use, then grapple check to climb out of the gut of the creature are under his name on invisible castle.
A swallowed creature that avoids paralysis can climb out of the mass with a successful grapple check. This returns it to the plant’s maw, where another successful grapple check is needed to get free.
Davan/Void
I don’t think you have any means of acting on the snake’s swiftness at this time – Void just tumbled away, and Davan does not have a weapon in hand, but still has his regular turn to try something – spell, etc, etc.
Conditions:
Dreadnought: Swallowed, Grappled
Lo Kag: Swallowed, Grappled, Bulls Strength (80 rounds)
Davan: Grappled, Divine Power (8 rounds)
Normallyl, while grappled, you cannot cast a spell that requires a somatic component, but I will allow it with the use of an action point, since it is Eberron and all.
OOC: Lo-Kag will continue to try to struggle his way out and free, grapple check is +24.

-quote from the Wizards web board
Seeing another ally caught in the grips of the creature, Morph intones one of his minor practiced incantations of martial nature. Four streaking silver dart burst from his outstretched hand to arc around and converge on the plant creature with small concussions of force.
ooc
5' step to O1 and cast magic missle. CL 7, 4 missles. 12 damage Any way to tell how hurt this thing looks?
24 - Plant Creature – Dreadnought, Lo-Kag swallowed, 3 acid damage each. Attacks Void – Bite missed
23 - Dreadnought - Swallowed Whole, Acid damage of 3, Attack creature from inside – HIT for 9 damage
19 - Void – Charge and Flying Kick HIT for 8 damage
12 - Asenfel – Empowered Eldritch Blast HIT for 28 damage
11 - Morph - Cast Magic Missile on Plant Creature for 12 damage
4 - Lo Kag – Swallowed Whole, Acid damage of 3,
3 - Darv – Cast Bless
2 - Davan – Swallowed Whole, Acid damage of 10, paralyzed.
Lo-Kag and Dreadnaught struggle against the vile acid that has engulfed them inside their organic prison. Lo-Kag is able to fight off the paralysis for another round. [AP needed once more to stave off paralysis, please update sheet]
The swallowed warforged changes tack and does his best to wind up his torso, then unloads a slam against the insides of the plant.
Outside of the plant, the priest struggles against his bindings, but is unable to break free, and disappears from sight, falling inside of the foul plant. In a moment, he goes from the light of day into revolting darkness, the vile stench of the plants digestive fluids working its way into his nostrils. His body tenses up and suddenly, Davan goes stiff. [Fort save vs. paralysis failed, AP would not have helped]
The plant then unleashes a savage bite upon the Gith, but his inertial armor alters the trajectory of the plants teeth slightly, allowing him to escape unscathed.
Void charges forward again with a flying kick, determined to end the leafy horror menace. His foot strikes something, but he isn’t sure whether it was the plant itself or some foliage that was caught on it.
Asenfel lashes out again and again with eldritch energies, flaying whole layers of vegetable matter from the voracious creature's central mass.
Seeing another ally caught in the grips of the creature, Morph intones one of his minor practiced incantations of martial nature. Four streaking silver dart burst from his outstretched hand to arc around and converge on the plant creature with small concussions of force.
The large goliath continues to struggle against the walls of his captor, but even his increased size and strength do not allow him to achieve a hand or foothold. [Grapple check failed]
"Oh, dear," Darv mutters, "This isn't good at all. I should have prepared more Flame Strikes...."
Conditions:
All: Bless (8 rounds)
Dreadnought: Swallowed, Grappled
Lo Kag: Swallowed, Grappled, Bulls Strength (78 rounds)
Davan: Grappled, Divine Power (7 rounds)
All rolls made for your characters are under their names on invisiblecastle – some pretty horrid rolls this round…
The creature looks to be heavily wounded, but the folks outside have noticed that several of its wounds have sealed themselves fairly quickly each round.
Lo-Kag shifts tacts and decides that he might as well do what he can from below.
OOC: Screw this, I'd need two consecutive successful checks to get free and the fight will be over by then. Grapple check to gutpunch the bastard the fun way. +22 grapple check, on success I do 1d4+11 damage.

Seeing the plant creature's wounds seem to be healing, Morph decides it is time to stop fooling around. He chants a few words and his body swells in size, becoming hideously ugly once more as he takes the shape of an Annis Hag.
ooc
Cast polymorph to take the form of an Annis Hag again. Taking up squares o1/o0/p1/p0. AC becomes 26.
